 "Confluence" used U.S. postage stamps & resin on canvas 36 x 36 in Mixed media using hundreds of vintage canceled U.S. postage stamps arranged in geometric bands based on the Golden Mean (Phi). Each stamp once carried a personal story and together they form a unified visual field exploring interconnectedness, pattern, and collective history.   February is here. A new month. A quieter invitation. If January was about momentum, February is about settling in. Less striving. More listening. More calm. This is a beautiful time to begin (or gently return to) a meditation practice. One that doesn’t ask you to change yourself, fix your thoughts, or force stillness.
The Calm Within was created for moments exactly like this: • when the mind feels busy • when life feels loud • when you’re craving something simple, steady, and real Just a few minutes a day. A quiet seat. A return to what’s already here. Let February be the month you soften inward. The calm isn’t something you achieve, it’s something you remember. Slow down and enjoy mindful living. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GBV713BP  A new small "Inner Currents" 20 x 20 on the easel.

Not resolutions, just room to breathe and be present. I’m pleased to share that my new book, The Calm Within: A Complete Guide to Mantra Meditation, is now available.
